When Kimberly finds a magic sword, she is taken away from Earth and her abusive father to a world called Auviarra, a place she thought her grandfather had invented.
Striving to become the kind of hero she has always read about, Kimberly soon discovers a growing darkness inside, a darkness that is being cultivated by the evil creatures she is hunting. Will she stay human, or succumb to the magic?

After defeating her father in the Wizard's Forest, Kimberly is hot on the trail of her friend Serra, a half-demon captured by the Brotherhood of Zor. Expecting an easy fight, Kimberly is nearly killed when her magic fails her in a battle with the Brotherhood.
Intent on saving her friend, Kimberly must master her new magical powers before her friend is lost forever.

While Kimberly finds herself stuck on an airship escorting an uptight elven princess across Auviarra in order to restore a powerful artifact capable of controlling the weather, Trey and Serra stay behind to ferret out an assassination plot on the Royal Family of Tir Lijis.
